What's the real DJIA open for this day?

Yahoo Finance used to say 11688.61. Google [1] and a slew of hash tools agree. But Yahoo changed to 11688.76 [2]. The highs and lows are also different. Where's the mistake? --62.140.137.117 14:43, 6 January 2011 (EST)

Apparently the highs and lows are a given, as they're never the same (I'm not too familiar with this). But the open should just be the same. I also notice now how Google missed 2010-12-23 entirely (same value all day). I'm lost now. --62.140.137.117 15:10, 6 January 2011 (EST)

My "source" fetches the data independently from different websites, these should be the "real" values:
 	date 	 	value 	 	fetch_date 	 	source
 	2011-01-05 	11688.6100000 	2011-01-05 09:30:22 	finance.yahoo.com
 	2011-01-05 	11688.6100000 	2011-01-05 09:30:20 	google.com/finance
 	2011-01-05 	11688.6103516 	2011-01-05 09:30:19 	djindexes.com
 	2010-12-23 	11559.1100000 	2010-12-23 09:30:24 	finance.yahoo.com

Thanks, that was helpful. So 11688.61 it is. But it's confusing as heck and a bit of a bummer to find that things aren't that reliable. Oh well.
